Good win today
Very disappointed with Tonev but delighted with Bacuna and Guzan
Does anyone know the story with Lowton?

We have only lost 2 out of our last 12 games a Carrow Road, both to Villa. I don't think we will ever beat you all the while Lambert is Manager.

Mendax - I heard a few rumours while at the Norwich game that Lowton had been dropped solely on the performance he produced at the Newcastle game

OK JN
I wasn't at the game so obviously didn't
see his whole performance
What I did see was his reaction or more precisely his "non reaction" to what was going on around him for Newcastle's 2nd goal
Shockingly bad

. Seems to happen when players get told that they have been outstanding. Lanbert praised him to the heavens last season as the only ever present. Has it gone to his head? He would not be the first player to believe the hype that goes with the accolade of outstanding. Seem to remember last season that one of the ED'S stating that he would play for England in near future.

Lowton seemed to be the only player that wasn't complacent at any point last season, he was basically guarenteed a start and he still worked his socks off. I really think him being dropped will help not only lowton, but villa too! This weekend some players needed to be left out, we were pretty much unchanged this season previously (other than forced changes) so it was time PL showed everybody that they are not guarenteed starters. That was a big problem for us last season, with players like bannan getting picked because it was between him and ireland, and he knew he didn't have to try to play again next week.

While some are moaning about our summer signings, think of the positions we have signed, we've pretty much got somebody to play in every position in some manner which if nothing more will keep every single player on their toes!

I understand what you are saying ethAVFC and I agree, but with one fundamental difference. The players we bought in, centre forward aside, needed to be good enough to replace what we already had
I didn't want to see us change our bench this year, I wanted the majority of the team from last year to become the bench
We needed better quality not more quantity
